Abstract

Abstract : Hierarchical Ni(OH)2 nanotubes synthesized by a self-sacrificial template method exhibit superior capacitance and stability as electrode materials for supercapacitors. Abstract : Hierarchical Ni(OH)2 nanotubes with ultrathin nanoflakes were successfully synthesized by a self-sacrificial template via a facile solvothermal method. The as-prepared Ni(OH)2 nanotubes exhibit a high specific capacitance of 1319 F g −1 at 3 A g −1, and retain 700 F g −1 (79.3% of the initial capacitance) at 5 A g −1 after 7000 cycles.
